FreedomPop Now Lets Customers Bring Their Own Phone

FreedomPop today announced that customers interested in its service can supply their own device if they so wish. The company already sells the Samsung Galaxy SII for $159, and today added the HTC EVO 4G to its roster for $119. If customers aren't interested in these phones, they can supply their own Sprint-compatible handset and activate it with FreedomPop. FreedomPop is an MVNO that uses Sprint's network. It relies on VoIP to route calls over Sprint's data network. FreedomPop offers 200 voice minutes, 500 texts and 500 MBs of data for free, and also has an unlimited voice and text plan for $4.58 per month. Customers can select from a handful of different data options.
